Two Palestinians from the town of Beit Hanoun were killed early on Saturday in an airstrike carried out by Israeli occupation aircraft in the vicinity of the residential city of Sheikh Zayed in the northern Gaza Strip, marking the 190th day of aggression against the Strip.

Occupation aircraft conducted massive airstrikes on the Central Governorate, targeting the al-Zaytoun and al-Daraj neighborhoods in Gaza City, as well as the al-Fokhari area southeast of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip. Additionally, occupation artillery shelled the eastern parts of Jabalia in the north of Nuseirat in the central Gaza Strip.

On Friday evening, occupation aircraft conducted an airstrike on a house owned by the al-Assi family in Zarqa, central Gaza City, resulting in the deaths of at least five Palestinians and injuries to 30 others. Additionally, two individuals were killed and several others injured in an Israeli bombing north of the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip.

Several civilians were killed, and others sustained injuries due to a bombing targeting Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip. Concurrently, military aircraft raided a house belonging to the Abu Sameh family at the Mekki roundabout in the al-Maghazi camp in the central Strip.

Occupation warplanes conducted an airstrike on Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip. Meanwhile, civil defense and ambulance teams successfully retrieved the bodies of ten individuals who were killed in various areas of the city of Khan Younis in the south.

On day 189, amid the ongoing Israeli genocide against the Palestinian people besieged in the Gaza Strip, Israeli occupation forces continue to ruthlessly target innocent families, committing eight heinous massacres.

It was reported that 89 martyrs and 120 wounded people were transferred to Gaza hospitals with others remaining unaccounted for.

Many remain trapped beneath the rubble, as rescue teams struggle to reach them. The scenes of destruction and despair paint a harrowing picture of the daily reality faced by the people of Gaza. Meanwhile, the Government Media Office in Gaza announced that the Israeli occupation army targeted three journalists during their media coverage in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
